About the Role

This internship is ideal for design students or recent graduates who would like to gain insight into an agency or commercial environment, as well as those looking to kickstart a career in design.

In this role, you will support with a wide range of motion design projects, including planning and delivering small-scale on-site filming, detailed 2D and 3D animation, short “explainer” video creation, developing interactive visuals for internal teams and external clients, as well as post-production video and audio editing tailored to various platforms and events. We are therefore looking for talented individuals with a great understanding of aesthetics and meticulous attention to detail.

Collaborating with experienced members of our Creative team, you will receive comprehensive training and gain hands-on design experience in the healthcare sector. You can learn more about the Creative team and see some examples of our work here: https://www.costellomedical.com/what-we-do/medical-communications/creative/

You can also hear directly from members of the team by watching our Virtual Creative Careers Fair, where they share their experiences and insights into life at the company: https://www.costellomedical.com/careers/working-at-costello-medical/

Hybrid Working Policy: We believe that having face-to-face time in the office holds many benefits and is central to ensuring that the community we have created, where people have a workplace they belong to and feel part of, is never lost. At the same time, we recognise that homeworking can improve work life balance, reduce commuting times and costs, and provide the opportunity to juggle personal commitments.

Given the wealth of training, mentorship and development opportunities that are available as part of our internship programmes, time spent in the office is even more crucial. Therefore, our interns can work from home 1 day per week.

Career Prospects After the Internship

As a Motion Design Intern in the Creative team, you will have the option to select an internship length of either 3 or 6 months, enabling you to develop your skills and potentially gain experience working on multiple project types. There may also be the opportunity for strong interns to apply for the Motion Designer role and join the team on a permanent basis, depending on business need.
